Over the river and through the woods
A Halloween candy grab
We'll run through the streets
And eat all the sweets
Who wants to live forever?
We all scream for icecream
We all scream for s'mores
We all scream for candy
Til our stomach is sores
Grab that candy
And let's get high
No escapees
Any last man will die!
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Eat a dozen mars bars, 'cause I can still see
Drown it with a three liter of Mountain Dew
Hallucinate some colors, they all seem new
We all scream for icecream
We all scream for choc'late
We all scream for popsicles
Til dust falls out our wallets
Call me irresponsible, call me unreliable
Throw in a bag of M&Ms too
I can't hold much more of this
I can't stop despite that fact
Look at the pretty colors, ooo!
Call me unpredictable, tell me I'm impractical
Add in all your sugared goo
I can't eat one more bite of this
I can almost cram one more bit in
All those pretty colors look so true!
We all scream for icecream
We all scream for sugar
We all scream for gooey stuff
Til it runs out like boogers
Grab that candy
And let's get high
No escapees
Any last man will die!
Any last man will die!!
ANY LAST MAN WI... ah, stop, everything's spinning...

To breakdown-beatdown:
That takes care of 1, 2, and 3. It would have included 5, but that was a spaghetti eating contest. And... you know, considering the candy thing you have, it might also have nailed 6.
